this assumes the couple was lying in their account, for which there is no evidence. this is little more than victim-blaming, and using a falsehood to justify bigotry and violence.
I don't know what happened, I just understand what the person's point was in bringing it up and can also understand that they're not condoning or justifying the violence that occurred at all.
the point was, very obviously, to use a lie about the victims to justify the bigotry and violence against them-- over and over, and that's exactly what they've done.
and you're defending using a lie to justify the bigotry and violence they faced.
That's absolutely not at all what they were saying, idk if you're reading a different comment or something.
i'm not to blame for the terrible things they said and you endorsed-- and the evidence for it is here for all to see (and downvote, and mods to remove)
don't say such despicable things if you can't face the consequences.
I hope one day you see how crazy this sounds, if it's not intentional.
i've been calling out these crazy comments for hours
i'm not to blame for what others say here.
You are to blame for your own comments, and you come across as unhinged. You act like you're some great crusader for truth, yet you make just as many accusations with just as little evidence as the person you're calling out- but they at least had the self awareness to say "I could be wrong..."
